Hello

thankyou
Hi @chinu,
A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.
The only way to uninstall the lock is to remove the screw caps and unscrew the lock.
Have you tried using a thin tool like a flathead screwdriver to pry the caps out?
Maybe spraying them with WD40 will help loosen the screw caps.
You could also try putting a piece of double-sided tape on the screw caps and then attaching something to the tape so you can pull it out of the hole.
Unfortunately, without damaging the lock or the door, getting the screw caps out is the only way you'll be able to get the lock out.
Let me know how you get on.
